Ghanaian celebrated actor, James Gardiner has thrown his support behind his colleague actor, John Dumelo who is contesting the NDC Parliamentary seat at the Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency in Accra.

In an open letter to his colleague turned politician, Mr. Gardiner said his colleague and brother had shown that creative people were not just entertainers but people with substance hence he would die for him.

“You present another opportunity to show and prove that creatives are layered people of substance (and more than just ‘entertainers’),” his open letter reads.

James Gardiner shared the open letter on his IG page on Wednesday, December 2, 2020.

His support comes at a time when many Ghanaian celebrities, notably, actors have thrown their support behind the ruling NPP and Lydia Seyram Alhassan, Mr. Dumelo’s main contender at the constituency.

The Letter

Together with one of the posters of the actor turned politicians soliciting for votes, he wrote;

“Dear John,
I hope you are doing well and staying safe. I decided to make this letter public because I would like for everyone who isn’t paying attention to see how driven and relentless you are in vying for a challenging position of service to mankind. I’ve known you for many years but this is beyond friendship. If there’s one thing I would commend u about, it would be your spirit of resilience and how you make it look so effortless!!! How do you do it? I know you’ve had some downs, but you don’t stay down, you get back up, dust yourself off and keep moving. We learn from our mistakes.
Kofi, I’m sure a lot of people would doubt you in your quest to become the Member of Parliament for Ayawaso West Wougon Constituency but I know that, that even rekindles your energy to keep you going. It started off as a dismissal conversation, then you won the primaries and then the reality set in! You didn’t just get here overnight. It’s the passion you’ve had also for politics. It is glaringly obvious you have done more than enough to set an example of service to humanity. Though you are not an MP yet, you have, in your own little way shown a glimpse of hope in the good things you are setting out to do for the people. Donation of laptops to students, Start up Capitals for the needy to start their businesses, a Mushroom Initiative as an employment avenue. Your donations and your dedication during these ‘not so ordinary’ times have been remarkable! You were there during the fire outbreak and during the floody times. You were there to give a helping hand whenever and wherever you could. You’ve always been there. And for that I say Ayekoo!! A lot of people may say that all your good works you’ve done is a desperate solicitation for votes, but I pray you stay true to your course, yourself and to the people. You present another opportunity to show and prove that creatives are layered people of substance (and more than just ‘entertainers’) I hope that in the end, after all this is over, you would proudly stand in your office, look back at the toil and sweat u shed and tell your constituents and yourself, ‘We did it.’ Get to work already John! We move! ✊🏾 #Idey4u”.
